An image processing apparatus is disclosed. The present image processing apparatus includes an input unit to which an image is input; and a processor which extracts visual characteristics by reducing an input image and obtains a high-definition image by reflecting extracted visual characteristics on the input image. The disclosure relates to an artificial intelligence (AI) system and application thereof that simulate functions such as cognition and decision-making of a human brain using a machine learning algorithm such as deep learning.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and computer-readable recording medium

Disclosed is an image processing apparatus. The present image processing apparatus comprises: an input unit for inputting an image; and a processor for shrinking the inputted image to a predetermined ratio, extracting a visual feature from the shrunken image, performing an image quality enhancement process reflecting the extracted visual feature in the inputted image, repeatedly performing, for a predetermined number of times, the shrinking, the extracting, and the image quality enhancement process on the image that has undergone the image quality enhancement process. The present disclosure relates to an artificial intelligence (AI) system and an application thereof that simulate the functions of a human brain, such as recognition, judgment, etc., by using a machine learning algorithm such as deep learning, etc.

Image processing apparatus and image processing method

An image processing apparatus is provided. The image processing apparatus includes a processor configured to, in response to an image including a plurality of frames being input, change a predetermined parameter to a parameter corresponding to a compression rate of each of the plurality of frames for each frame, and process the input image by using the parameter changed for each frame, and an output interface configured to output the processed image.

Image processing apparatus, method for processing image and computer-readable recording medium

An image processing apparatus is provided. The image processing apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment includes a communicator configured to receive an image, and a processor configured to generate a first image obtained by performing image processing on the received image by using a parameter for image processing, generate a second image obtained by reducing the first image at a predetermined ratio, and extract respective visual features from the first image and the second image, wherein the processor is further configured to adjust the parameter to allow a difference between the visual feature of the first image and the visual feature of the second image to be within a predetermined range.

The present invention relates to a method for motion compensation and state-of-motion specific attenuation correction of positron tomography images by using a small number of low-radiation-dose computer tomography images. The method of the present invention comprises the steps of: acquiring respiration-specific PET data; acquiring CT images from at least 2 different respirations, and using same to generate a virtual 4D CT image; matching the 4D CT image and the respiration-specific PET data, and selecting 3D CT images accurately corresponding to specific respirations; using the selected results to extract respiration motion displacement field information between respiration-specific PET data; using the selected CT images to subject the respiration-specific PET data to respiration-specific attenuation and scattering correction; and using the corrected respiration-specific PET data items and the extracted respiration motion displacement field information items to carry out respiration compensation and reconstruction.
